ONE Championship returns to Singapore Indoor Stadium on Saturday, March 26th.
This high-stakes atomweight contest has tremendous importance for how the division plays out all throughout 2022.
This sequel bout between Zamboanga and Ham could very well be a title eliminator. It pits the number two and number three ranked atomweights against each other inside the ONE Circle.
Many saw their first fight in the ONE Atomweight Grand Prix quarter-finals as one of the more controversial contests of last year.
Denice Zamboanga vs Seo Hee Ham II
The split decision win for Ham came at ONE: Empower in September. Zamboanga took her first-ever professional MMA defeat in the process.
The fight verdict was appealed to the since-abolished ONE competition committee. But the initial bout decision stood even upon review.
The present ONE rankings have a curious hierarchy layout considering that Seo Hee Ham emerged victorious from her initial go-around with Denice Zamboanga.
That Fall mixed martial arts contest represented the last time that both fighters have competed.
While Ham advanced in the tournament with that win, an injury ousted the decorated warrior from the GP.
The well-regarded champion for Road FC, Rizin, Deep Jewels, etc looks for back-to-back victories over Zamboanga and to go 2-0 in her ONE Championship run overall. Conversely, Zamboanga looks to get back to the win column by redeeming her sole defeat so far in MMA.
Atomweight representation is strong at ONE X as the atomweight world championship is on the line.
Returning ONE atomweight world champion Angela Lee looks to ward off the oncoming challenge of ONE atomweight Grand Prix champion Stamp Fairtex.
What are your feelings on Zamboanga vs Ham II being booked for ONE X?
